One of the highlights of our trip to SA
The experience we had at the Crocodile Kruger Safari lodge is one my wife and I will never forget. We initially wanted to stay in the park, however because everything was booked we decided to try this out. The staff was amazing, including Johan, Harris and Solomon, our safari guide. So friendly and so accommodating. We weren't sure what to expect, but are so happy we made this decision. The food was also very good, some of the best we had during our 2 week trip in the country. The safari was incredible, especially due to the knowledge of our tour guide Solomon. We were 2 for 2 in seeing the big 5 and despite being outside of Kruger, we were literally across the river and could see elephants, zebra and kudu from our balcony. Only a ten minute drive to the main gate to the park. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place to anyone going to Kruger National Park. As mentioned it was an experience we will never forget.

Great place - shame about the tobacco smoke
This would have warranted five stars if it hadn't been for the tobacco smoke! Guests are allowed to smoke on the first floor bar terrace and the prevailing breeze means the smoke permeates all the public area. Fortunately rooms don't suffer. Dinner was served on the river terrace with a log fire brazier for warmth - wonderful. Except that some guests smoked between courses which spoilt the meal. Good food. Wanted to go into Kruger NP at 6 the next morning so they gave me a breakfast pack - really nice

Great service and location right outside of Kruger
Our stay at the Crocodile Kruger Safari Lodge was lovely. I only wish we were staying longer. The staff were extremely helpful - they met us at the door to check-in, provided alternate directions to avoid traffic heading to the airport, accommodated our last minute request for dinner at the resort, and woke up early to pack us a to-go breakfast before we left. We stayed in the luxury room with balcony which had a great view of the property and into the Kruger park across the river. Though we arrived after sunset and couldn't fully enjoy the view, you could see the river and Kruger Park from the balcony and other guests reported seeing elephant. All-in-all I would definitely recommend as a place to stay outside of Kruger Park (about 30 mins. outside Crocodile Gate)

Lodge was very difficult to find and access. Very poor road and little to no signage. 3 out of 4 air conditioners in room did not work. Support staff awesome, head staff, not so much.

They try very hard
Really nice people that try very hard but its a bit like trying to turn a cabbage leaf into a gourmet meal. Its fairly conveniently located to the Kruger Parks Croc Bridge gate. don't know what you would do there for more than a night though.

Good Value
The lodge is an ok distance from the KNP. We stayed in a chalet with 3 bedrooms, living room, kitchen and outdoor braai area, and upper level deck for relaxing and viewing the river. Overall it was comfortable, however the roads there are poor and flood in heavy rain. The chalet had multiple sliding glass doors, each with a gate. Every door and gate had its own key; and all the keys were on one key ring, and none were labeled. The main door was difficult to slide. 6 adults would be very comfortable, plus there was space for a couple of younger ones. WiFi really did not exist, but cell reception was good and the internet could be accessed by one's own cellular device. Meal service at the lodge required 48 hr. notice, however there are a couple of restaurants nearby with nice menus and normal prices. It was great having animals roaming about which included zebras, giraffes, warthogs, and wildebeest. We were 4 adults, and that was a good value. For 6 adults, it would be a great value. The service was friendly, and I would definitely stay there again, if we were a group of 6.

Great weekend lodge
Very comfortable with good amenities. Me a my wife stopped over on route to Mozambique. The staff were friendly and helpful and the food was wholesome. You can sit on the upper deck with a drink and watch the sunset while elephants grazing on the river bank. A few small improvements would take it from good to great.
